Are these swords sharpened?

No they're dull. And the straps that are on the sleeves that you put the swords in are very loose and there's no way to tighten them. However, the swords are awesome! Really badass! If you want to them to be sharp then you'll have to sharpen them yourself.

They aren't like razors, but they're plenty sharp enough to cut you open if you handle them poorly. They're perfect for cosplay or just fun.

It is dull. Some swords I have ordered can be sharpened for an additional fee, I do not remember if this was one of them.

Mine are still sharp, but there in no reason they can not be sharpened. I have full plans on sharpneing them once they get dull; I love these knives. Even ordered more as a gift to family.

Yes they are sharp. I have had mine since may with no issues, a matter a fact I just used them before responding to this. Great product

Thes are steel tipped - not carbide. I might also add that I have used extensivley over the past two weeks and they seem to be holding an edge very well.

Yes they do need sharpening but they are easy to re-sharpen. It's a good blade that doesn't rust easily.

Yes there is a sharpening stone. It is behind the rope on the sheath and it's loose.

They are really sharp to start out with and they last a pretty long while. I'm not sure if they can be sharpened, although if they can't be sharpened I'm sure anyone could just replace the blades on then with new ones. I love these knives. Hope that helped in some way or another.

From what I could tell, they were either not sharpened or not sharpened very well. I just had an employee at the rink sharpen them before I used them.

Yes they can be sharpened but I have not had to do anything to them yet except wash them. They are still very very sharp.

They appear to be steel. They don't rust but they do lose their sharpness over time. Once dull they need replaced otherwise, it won't work. They usually last two months.

Definitely not. They aren't made the proper way. The bottom of the blade where you hold the sword is a really long screw. My katana got thrown away because of the metal bending under the force if me drawing the sword.

I've just purchased mine this year so I haven't had to sharpen the blades. but there is a specialized tool for it that is pulled along the blade. That all I know about it.

Yes, they are easily removed and sharpened. They are EXTREMELY sharp, and highly effective at slicing. I wear kevlar gloves as extra insurance, and am careful. This is a superb, very well-built device.

Of course, they are just steel knives with a colorful coating. Anywhere that the sharpening stones contact the blade the coating will be removed, so one should be careful to sharpen properly.

I'm not sure because I haven't had to sharpen mine yet. I would think that they could be because like someone else said they aren't made out of something that is not out of the ordinary. They should last a while before they need to be sharpened.
